Pei Huaian’s first act upon returning was to investigate the rumors.
Few people knew about Shao He giving birth at Mass Burial Mound; if someone hadn’t deliberately spread the news, it wouldn’t have spread so quickly.
Ah Mo quickly found out that it was the doing of Liang Weishuang.
Liang Weishuang was still fantasizing about how wretched Shao He would be, when, in the next moment, she was caught and brought to the Fifth Prince’s Mansion.
"What are you doing, let me go— I am the Lady of the Marquis of Pingnan!"
"The Lady of the Marquis of Pingnan has long been dead," came a cold voice, as Pei Huaian approached with brisk steps.
Upon seeing him, Liang Weishuang’s previously arrogant attitude immediately extinguished, and she recoiled in fear.
"Could it be that you have done something guilty? Otherwise, why would you be so afraid to face this Prince?" Pei Huaian said, rubbing his fingers together with a clear, cold voice.
"No, no, I haven’t done anything," Liang Weishuang swallowed in fear.
At that moment, a woman riddled with wounds was dragged in and thrown before her.
"Miss, save me, please save..." the maid weakly reached out a hand, grabbing and shaking the hem of her skirt.
